The Swedish State’s Insurance for Foreign Students in Sweden

(STUDENT IN)

Insurance Terms and Conditions, 2011

All students in Sweden are currently covered by the personal injury insurance (the general student insurance) that is obtained on behalf of universities and colleges within the State insurance system by the Central Student Grants Committee. The insurance applies in Sweden during school hours and during travel to and from the location where school hours are spent.
Many foreign students in Sweden have not had the possibility to take out their own insurance for illness and for accidents during leisure time. This insurance provides foreign students cover for medical expenses. It also contains a certain amount of accident cover in the form of a fixed amount in conjunction with disability or death, as well as liability and legal expenses cover. It applies twenty-four hours a day in Sweden.
These terms and conditions enter into force on 1 January 2011.

These terms and conditions of insurance are based on the Ordinance (1993:674) concerning insurance cover etc. in conjunction with travel on government business. The Ordinance requires State authorities to contract with Kammarkollegiet (the Swedish Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency) business travel insurance on behalf of employees and independent contractors. The Ordinance lays down certain minimum requirements concerning the scope of the insurance cover. It also states certain categories of persons – such as students, those performing compulsory military service and certain consultants – who are not to be covered by this insurance.
